About Collegewise New York

Collegewise New York has guided nearly 150 students through 1400 application submissions since 2014. We have a fantastic lounge space for students to work on their college applications and relax, and we’ve noticed more than a few parents enjoying the space, too. Students can easily hop on public transportation to check out several nearby colleges and universities after meeting with their Collegewise New York counselor.

We celebrate the completion of each and every application, sometimes by ringing a gong, cowbell, or high fiving until it stings just a little. Hey, New Yorkers are a unique bunch – each student gets their own celebration!

What are people saying about Collegewise New York?

Rachael

Cornell University

Choosing to use Collegewise was definitely the best decision I made throughout the whole college application process. From the very first meeting, my counselor helped me make a plan, begin brainstorming essay ideas, start a checklist, and got me organized and in control of what I needed to do.

Karen, Parent of Jodie

University of Michigan

Our counselor helped our daughter feel in control of the entire process. They Skyped frequently and action items were always set for the next call. I firmly believe that Jodie’s process would not have gone as smoothly as it did had it not been for our counselor’s knowledge and experience.

Regena, Parent of Maggie

Chapman University

Working with our counselor was the best decision we have ever made! She took a process that can be overwhelming and scary and made it an incredible learning experience. And much to our surprise and delight, all of her efforts paid off, as Maggie was accepted into her dream school, which was a reach for her.

Nicholas, Parent of Sophia

Bucknell University

Our counselor’s enthusiasm, focus, and personality were the perfect fit for our family. This experience surpassed all our expectations. We were relieved of the stress, Sophia was empowered, and the application process gave us the ability to focus on giving Sophia the loving support she needed.

Zach, Parent of Emily

Oberlin College

Working with Collegewise was a terrific experience for our daughter. Our counselor was great with getting Emily to focus on deadlines and also helped identify a list of schools that were appropriate. I think our counselor related to Emily in ways her school advisor did not. I recommend Collegewise wholeheartedly.

Tali

Drexel University

My experience with Collegewise left me feeling relieved and confident. My counselor really helped me out in terms of outlining a college essay that was completely unique to me. I felt much better about my applications, especially knowing that I could email my counselor whenever I needed to for guidance and feedback.
